you can't use the e 13 cups on the older cannondales. it will have play. i had a 2004 gemini that came with a manitou that i switched to a travis. i got two flat reducer cups from cannondale and a king 1-1/8 headset. there was no problem with that set up and i am still using it on my judge.

if you do get a 2006 or newer cannondale. you can use the e-13 zero stack reducers.

i would go with the fox 36. that fork is just a mini fox 40.
